A day out and about...

Well, court was reset again, but not before GrandmaMom had started her trek to DFW from Austin. She's already put in for the day off, so she just kept on driving. She got here at around 10:30, and we headed out. We went to Home Goods to help her find a sheet set to coordinate with her new bedding, and then next door to Sprouts where she picked up a pack of crumpets and I got a few staples for my pantry.

From there, we headed to Souper Salad, Landry's non-McDonalds choice for his birthday lunch. We all chowed down on our salads, and various breads and pizza..Ryli's choice for dessert was a sundae with strawberry, pineapple and caramel. GrandmaMom and I were skeptical that she'd eat it, but she devoured it.

From there, we went to the Target closest to my house, as Landry had gotten a toy at Home Goods, but Ryli hadn't been able to find something pretty enough. Ryli found a Littlest Pet Shop playset, and Landry made off with a Jurassic World spinosaurus. We meandered from toys to housewares, where we helped GrandmaMom pick out an area rug and coordinating pillows, and even found a smaller rug for the front door to match the area rug.

Then, it was time to say so long. GrandmaMom dropped us off with our purchases. She had to hurry home to let a vacationing Dacey's pup out, or face the consequences. We also started planning our next Amtrak mini-vacation.

All in all, it was a good day. Landry's birthday present from GrandmaMom is sitting on top of the washer/dryer. We ate dinner and got to bed early.
